This forested country property was purchased in 1923 by my great grandfather as a farm. My father was born here. All that was left when I arrived six years ago was the old stone house foundation -n it took me three days to find that! It is an honor to share a place this beautiful, creek, hills n trails ... Learn more about this land: Bordering Hanging Bog Wildlife Management Area and Crabb Hollow State Forest this charmed creek laced forest has been in my family for over 100 years. Recently turned camp with 10 well spaced camp sites with fire pits, deep well potable water, dish washing station and a couple of electrical outlets for charging, blender, hot pot.... We have what you need for comfort. We just finished a glamping cabin for those want maximum comfort and amenities all set up! ( Airbnb ) We are located right next to Wildlife Management and State Forest property and are on the snowmobile trail. Enjoy central (communal) and/ or individual camp fire pits (some rustic wood provided). Camp fire wood available near by ($5.00 bundle). RV's will want to use the somewhat level primary and secondary drive areas (sites 1, 2, 3 or 6). You can have privacy or enjoy socialization here. We are truly in the woods well spaced between sites and away from all traffic except very light country road travel. Spaces 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7 are drive -in. Spaces 8, 9 and 10 are short walk-ins (50-250 feet) from parking. These locations, are across the creek FOOT bridge. You can not drive to them. Nice n private with rustic campfire wood, piled or to gather, near by. We have cut many beautiful walking trails on the forested hills out back and along the creeks. We sit 1/4 mile (through two meadows and up one tall and one small rise) from three ponds FULL of bass (fishing license required). I love to use the tiny beach at the first pond for a quick cool off swim. For a group swimming or tanning spot try Rushford Lake, where the beautiful little sandy Rushford Lake Public Beach is exactly 3 miles away. (Opened through Labor Day) Just down the road you can put your kayak or canoe in the Hanging Bog or go over to Genesee River access, 6 miles away to paddle or fish. Genesee Valley Greenway Trail is minutes away to go for a nice hike. See the hidden jem, Wiscoy Falls in 20 minutes or hike around Moss Lake. Approximately 25 miles in either direction will get you to a great day at Allegany or Letchworth State parks. You may want to take a nature path walks right here so you can hug trees and kiss rocks... or Play In The Creek ! All us kids and kids at heart love to play in the creek! Enjoy a fire in the communal pit or in your own and the firefly show which starts at dusk! All Cuba area attractions including Cuba Cheese, Garlic Festival, Block Barn, Palmer Opera House, Moonwinks and Cuba Lake are within 10 miles. The superb Amish community and offerings lace the entire area. I love all the doggies and have a big lab mix, Dino, who thinks all the people and all the other doggies were made to play with him. We understand everyone may not see it that way. Out of respect for everyone lets all keep our dogs in our space and clean-up after them. All are invited to cross the creek bridge for off leash romps and hikes. Children love it here! My Verizon phone and Hotspot work great here. There is a three week maximum stay limit at this time. Only sites 1, 2, 3 and 6 can accommodate larger RV's. Please come on down and enjoy this special spot. Rustic campfire wood provided for 1st night stay. Bring wood or purchase it from my next door neighbor. Do send any questions. Plan to arrive before 9pm for any site. Please take all trash away as there is no trash service in this area. Thank you!

Site 10 On Small Creek walk In Nice

Stars, secluded spots

Wonderful hosts, great property! Initially started setting up at Site 10 but moved to 9 for some more space. 10 is a great little spot, but is best suited for one tent. Had a wonderful time!

Site 2 OFF MAIN DRIVE RV BUDDY

Diane was a friendly, helpful host and pointed out hiking trails to explore from the beautiful property. The location was peaceful with only an occasional car passing by on the road. Recent road construction has made the entrance and exit very narrow. We have an F150 pulling a 22 foot trailer and had to maneuver a bit to get out

Site 3 Big Tent / Van Site

Site 3 was perfect for our 'camp in our van' needs while visiting Letchworth State Park (a 26 minute drive). The site is close to the road but cars rarely passed and it was quiet. Our Ram Promaster 3500 is big but we had an easy turn around and we backed into our site near a fire ring. Firewood was already on-site so we had a nice fire to relax in front of while enjoying watching the stars. Diane, accompanied by her friendly dog Dino, was a lovely hostess, made sure we had everything we needed, and even made us some breakfast muffins.

Site 8 Across The Creek Walk

Site 8 at Diane’s camp was perfect for us. It was a large, lovely, private wooded setting with flat areas for our 2 tents and a shelter and a fire pit with a log bench and firewood supplied by Diane. We appreciated having a spot where our dog could be off-leash, and Dino was a great playmate for her. There were mowed trails to explore, and a creek running through the camp. The dishwashing station was much appreciated, and a porta-potty, water and a shower are available. Diane’s sturdy wagon was extremely helpful in getting our supplies to and from our site. Directions were clear. Diane greeted us upon arrival. She was gracious, pleasant and accommodating, respectful of our privacy but let us know she was available if needed. We’d happily return to camp here again!
